Room for only one dairy industry trader in NZ's global outreach. A choice must be made between the NZ Dairy Group and Kiwi William Hague loses the British election to Tony Blair. Michael Cullen reassures the public the political parties can reach a concensus over superannuation. Public confidence is low over Air NZ's ability to make good management decisions following their purchase of Ansett.
